    I’m sure this is a bad faith argument and you don’t really think “rice and beans” means literally only rice and beans boiled in plain water, but just in case, you can throw in a couple veggies. Or not, since you live in a food desert that only serves McDonald’s, working 2 jobs to put cheeseburgers on the table for your kids so you don’t even have time to slice an onion. Sorry for being cruel 😊.

      Ah right. Vegetables, known to be highly available in food deserts.

      And, of course, there’s zero steps between a hamburger and rice, beans and veggies. Like, I don’t know, letting your kids have a candy bar. Or scrambled eggs. Those things are totally out of the question.

          That sure sounds like what you’re saying. Either you live off of rice, beans and lentils and maybe vegetables if you’re poor if those are all available in your area in the half an hour a day you have to prepare a meal and never give your kid a candy bar or you’re an unethical person who is responsible for climate change.

          And, of course, people in Canada solved that problem so people in the U.S. can too. Just like how the U.S. has socialized medicine.
